don't worry, while you're surfin the net with ease with your ibook/pwrbook as thin and lightweight as they are, those other windoze users with their bricks will be crying about all pop-ups, spyware, trojans, and viruses infecting their hi-jacked 'puters.

i went through tht exact same thing, i was browsing around on the apple website one day and the kid next to me was like "who uses apple? hippies and dumbasses?"...come to find out, he is an apple user to, because of his networking peers has to keep it secret, i think it's stupid how people keep stuff like that secret. and as far as the comments go, most people are ignorant, talk to me a year ago and i was one of them, but now i see the error in my ways.

I get grief almost daily from my co-workers about my PowerBook. Mostly I think they are just jealous. I have even tried to make my work XP desktop PC look link a Mac OS X. I get a lot of crap about that too. But I don't care. It might look like Mac OS X but it sure doesn't behave like it. We know the truth and have seen the light, oneday they will too.

Thanks god for the Apple Stores. I remember going into CompUSA to there little Mac area with very little software. When I went to by something, the cashier would look at me pitifully and say, "You know this if for a Mac?" When I said, "Yes, I know!" in a very irritated voice, they would shake there head like I was dying of cancer.
